>Do you scale the UI for some reason, eg. font size 125%? Sort of. Different parts are set with varying methods. However, percentages are never used except in web browsers. Fonts are set with points. Icons and most other matters are set with pixels. I could scale the entire thing by changing the resolution with xrandr, e.g., from the native 3840x2160 down to 1920x1080. But why? I didn't pay for a 4K monitor to run it at 2K. The problem is that the desktop environment (I use Xfce) has at least two different settings for icon size, and half a dozen for point size of text. For example, the window title bar text is one setting, toolbar text is another setting (which LO does not always respect, by the way), body text is another setting, and so on. Although I now have the Styles and Formatting toolbar visible, LO fails to respect the line spacing of the desktop environment. And someone decided to hard-code the spacing as a number of pixels for the main toolbar so, since I had to set the toolbar text big enough to see, the items appear somewhat smashed together: FileEditInsertFormatTableToolsLinguisticsWindowHelp. [Edit: This issue seems to have been resolved with LO 6.3.4.2.] LO is not the only application where column widths are hard-coded as a number of pixels; I have the same problem with a few other applications. And many applications, including LO, hard-code the icon size in toolbars, so the icons are 2-3mm high. For example, in the Styles and Formatting toolbar I have to hover over an icon to read its tool-tip in order to know what the icon does. And someone coded the Styles and Formatting window to be an application window instead of a toolbar window, so 'Styles and Formatting' is the same point size as the main window. It all works, it just looks weird. That's enough of a rant. I'll shut up now. :) -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
